How to toilet train children
-
sesame:
Prob is that I can't talk to pil.. Everytime I say something, they say I retort them.. Currently trying another way with ds, he knows how to tell me after, will say wet wet than I'll tell him too late to say when wet, must say before. Today, he managed to tell mi that he wans to poo n he really did it! So proud of him.
I understand that it is tougher to train boys... My 22 months' son is also diaper-ed. Strangely, he doesnt like taking off his \"protective layer\". You should tell your ILs that you have a fren (me) whose son is very good in talking at 22 months but STILL CANNOT say he wants to go to the toilet. :celebrate:tingting2424:
My dh and I can't stand the naggings anymore. Pil keep saying ds, 21mth old, so big still can't tell went pee or poo. So big still can't talk.
They don't understand that he's very selective in who he talks to.
My dd toilet trained herself before she was two.. Kinda hoping same thing will happen with ds but to no avail.
I've tried mil mtds. But it just doesn't work out.
One, let him go bare, only wearing shorts. If he pees, beat his bottom n scold. No use..
Two, every now n then bring him to toilet n ask him to pee or poo. Used to wk but hard to when my dd is ard n need to tutor her..
Now, whenever he pees or poop in his nappies, he won't come to me to change. Funny is that he will only let me change.
Now, what shld I do? I've read thru all the post but can't seems to find one that fits ds..:(
I get the \"everything also know how to say but dunno how to tell shh shh\" instead :roll: -
Very good!!! Actually I think toilet training starts from this... they have to learn that they are wet first. Then learn to associate the urge feeling to \"wanting to shh shh\".
Take heart!!!
Best way to deal with ILs is \"Orh, yes, ok.\" -
Sesame, dats wat I have been replying… So, nw they say I got golden mouth… Hard to please…

Ds was still wearing pull-ups at 3+. Very maru. It seemed like one day, he could pee in the potty by himself. But he would take a pull-ups from the cupboard and passed to us to put on for him whenever he needed to poo. He actually poo in pull-ups. No pull-ups, no poo. We hid the pull-ups so that he couldn’t find it and he poo in his pants for a few days. After that he sat on the potty. He refused to wear diapers at night. I tried to put on the diapers after he slept but he would wake up and cry. No choice, just let him be. He stopped peeing on the mattress after a month. We replaced the mattress and there hasn’t been any accident till now. Last year, my friend’s dd (3+) was still wearing pull-ups day and night as compared to her peers. Now at 4+, she is totally pull-ups free and goes to the toilet by herself at night. Some of her peers still need diapers at night although they were toilet-trained (in the morning) at a much younger age. Just let them take their time, they will out grow the diapers or pull-ups.

Hi, my ds is 23mths old & we decide to train him to pee in the potty, he has been doing his big biz in potty but not always, sometimes he still poo in his diaper. BUT he refused to stand & pee & would want to sit & pee. How how? I told him boys stand & pee & he has been seeing how my 33mths old nephew peeing in the potty.He would struggle when I asked him to stand & pee.. Hiaz... :?

So happy today… Finally managed to get started ds on toilet training. After pooing in the diaper after his morning milk n bread, he pee during the shower. From then, no pee when I bring him to the squatting kind of toilet at intervels of 30min or less. Even after his porridge at around 1030, still no pee. He didn’t even pee in his nap. Woke up after 1hr +, no pee. Brought him to toilet again. So happy that he pee. Even requested more milk after that. Normally, he’ll only take 5ounces but he managed to take 7. When I ask him if he wans to pee, he just walked to the toiler and wait for me to take off everything n pee. But right after that was 3 misses in the nappies, 1 miss on the floor during dinner time. Right before sleep, had him to pee. Hopefully he will remember to go to the toilet when he wans to pee tomorrow when he wakes up.

It very difficult to toilet train my gal too when she stay with her grandparent who dont know how to toilet train her... T.T I look after her during weekends, She would refuse to remove her pull-ups and dont want to go toilet whenever I suggest her the idea... ( to reminder her go toilet, make it a habit for her ) But when at childcare, The teacher told us where other kids will go toilet themselve, she would ask teacher to bring her too.. ( really want to pull my hair out ) ... So now at 3+, I not sure why she scare to go toilet... coz she dont want to let go of pull-up and still do big business in it ( T.T||| )... -
Every child is different in all aspects - that’s life. Some talks early, some walks early, some toilet train early, etc.
I’ve read articles in my PD’s clinic at TMC before that experts suggest not to (over)pressure and push kids into toilet-training if they are not yet ready. It might just psychologically frighten the kids more.
As DW and i have both been working, we couldn’t consientiously try to toilet train DD and DS, and let my mum help in her old method. They were able to go pee in the day before 2 yo, and also poo shortly after. As for the night, we monitored their timing and woke them up in the night to pee just before they would normally do so on the diapers (while the diaper is still being worn), and after a couple mth then took them off it. DS was faster as he could learn from elder sis, and he likes to match up to her…
But DS recently had 2 ‘accidents’ at night. He said he’s too tired so didn’t wake up to pee…
